Gank That Drank: A Supernatural Drinking Game Podcast

Join hosts Krissy Lenz and Nate McWhortor as they pour White Claws and dive into Season 8, Episode 22 of Supernatural, "Clip Show." This pivotal episode features Crowley systematically killing people the Winchesters have saved over the years, including Sarah Blake from Season 1's "Provenance." The hosts break down this tension-filled episode while playing their extensive drinking game with rules ranging from "someone dies" to "wash that taint."In this episode, Sam and Dean discover an ancient Men of Letters ritual to cure demons—just what they need for the third trial to close the gates of Hell. Meanwhile, Castiel teams up with Metatron to tackle heaven's problems, making some questionable choices along the way. The episode culminates in a heartbreaking sequence where Crowley executes Sarah Blake despite the brothers' desperate attempts to save her.Krissy and Nate analyze the clever writing of "Clip Show," particularly praising Crowley's devastating strategy of dismantling the Winchesters' life's work by killing those they've saved. The hosts discuss how the show subverts expectations with the title "Clip Show" despite featuring very few actual clips, and they share their frustrations with certain character decisions, particularly Castiel's actions with Metatron.Topics CoveredThe adorable shopping scene with Castiel buying "Busty Asian Babes"Abaddon's creepy disembodied hand sequenceThe terrible idea of digging up a Knight of Hell they'd previously defeatedSam's deteriorating health from the trialsThe tension between Dean and CastielMetatron's suspicious behavior and manipulationsThe recurring "wash that taint" line that becomes both meaningful and unintentionally funnyThe hosts wrap up by announcing their next episode—Season 11, Episode 22, "We Happy Few"—with another extensive set of drinking game rules as they continue their exploration of the Chuck storyline. Tune in to Gank That Drank for supernatural fun, insightful analysis, and plenty of drinks along the way. ---Learn more about supporting this podcast by becoming a member.

Thomas Bradford, a spiritualist in early 20th century Detroit, sought to prove the existence of an afterlife through a unique and tragic experiment. Partnering with fellow spiritualist Ruth Doran, Bradford devised a plan where he would take his own life and attempt to communicate with Doran from the beyond. In February 1921, Bradford was found dead in his apartment, leaving a note detailing his intentions. Despite his tragic end, Bradford's experiment did not produce the hoped-for proof of life after death, but it did ignite public fascination and debate over spiritualism and the mysteries of the afterlife. My Special Guest Is Sarah Blake Sarah Blake began Hushed Up History in October 2014 as a way to tell the dark, amusing, surprising, and forgotten true tales hidden inside history's discarded pages. She currently lives in New Jersey and when she is not writing about all things weird she works in cemeteries and museums, studies tarot and mediumship, paints nightmares, and devours everything she can about the history of her ancestor's home of Salem, Massachusetts. She also drinks way too much tea and has absolutely no regrets about it. If learning about tarot floats your boat she can be found at Twin Crows Tarot on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok.

In Episode 163, Sara Hildreth, from @FictionMatters and co-host of the podcast Novel Pairings, returns for her third appearance on our show as our expert for Classics & Retellings 101. Sara guides us through the sometimes intimidating world of timeless reads in an accessible way. She busted some myths about classics and changed my mind about some elements of the classics. And, she has a great approach to find the perfect retelling of your favorite classics for your next read.  This post contains affiliate links through which I make a small commission when you make a purchase (at no cost to you!). CLICK HERE for the full episode Show Notes on the blog. Highlights Sara explores the definitions of a classic and a modern classic book. We talk about separating the American literature canon from the idea of a classic. Sara talks about being free to define classics on personal terms. The idea of a book being labeled a “future classic.” Now-famous books that went unnoticed initially when they were released. Sara's personal reading motivations. Common issues people have when trying to tackle classic books. Notable quirks of many classics that were first published as serials. Tips and advice for approaching older books. Addressing the pressure surrounding reading or revisiting classics. Examples of nonfiction classics. Legal considerations for all those retellings. The rise of retellings as a trend with today's audience. The difference between retellings and fan fiction. Sara's recommendations for accessible classic literature. A different approach to finding the right retelling for your reading. Please note: Sara mistakenly mentions during the discussion that The Great Gatsbydid not come into popularity until its distribution to soldiers during World War I, when this actually occurred during World War II.

With periods set in the thirties, just before World War II, in the late fifties, just before the Civil Rights Movement, and in present day, it is very much of our time as it dares to approach the issues of racism and anti-Semitism and asks us to consider our own role in history.

Today on Asked and Answered by Soul, Jennifer Urezzio and Sarah Blake, alignment coach, and decision-making strategist, talk about how maybe the "great resignation" everyone is talking about is actually a "great realignment", and maybe it's time to shift your perspective and find yourself again. Being intentional, quieting the brain, and listening to your soul takes effort, but there is so much reward in it. Join us here as Jennifer and Sarah discuss how misalignment in our stories, values, and surroundings is really misalignment within. When we let go of our programming and take time to pause and listen to what our soul is sharing, we are able to detox from what others and our environment are telling us to be. When we build a strong foundation, connect, and really listen, we are able to intentionally live our soul's purpose. You can learn more about Sarah at https://www.sarahblakeconsulting.com/. About Sarah Sarah is an alignment coach and decision-making strategist. After surviving corporate trauma and it taking way too long to go through corporate detox, she now helps people navigate finding themselves again and shifting their perspective. Foundational to her work is the belief that “when there alignment with our values, our stories (breaking cultural conditioning) and our surroundings, there is alignment within.” Sarah is an international best-selling author of the multi-author book “Corporate Dropouts,” released February 2022, and recognized as one of the Top Emotional Intelligence Coaches by Coach Foundation for 2022. She also has a bunch of other accreditations and accolades, all of which only bring more value to the people she works with.  Her corporate background is in tech, defense/aerospace, highly male-dominated environments. I work with both male and female clients, from yogis to engineers.  Sarah currently has one furbaby, basically a Colorado native (10 days after she was born, they moved to Colorado), and coming out of the other side of the pandemic, I'm exploring new ideas of what brings me joy.   The Asked and Answered by Soul podcast is dedicated to helping you understand that your Soul is the answer.

Werewolf For God: The Turbulent Trial of Thiess of Kaltenbrunn with Sarah Blake

Like the witchcraft trials as a whole, the trial of supposed werewolves emerged in what is now Switzerland (especially the Valais and Vaud) during the Valais Witch Trials in the early 15th century and spread throughout Europe in the 16th, peaking in the 17th and subsiding by the 18th century. The persecution of werewolves and the associated folklore is an integral part of the "witch-hunt" phenomenon. During the early period, accusations of lycanthropy (transformation into a wolf) were mixed with accusations of wolf-riding or wolf- charming. The 1598 case of Peter Stumpp led to a significant peak in both interest in, and persecution of, supposed werewolves, primarily in French-speaking and German-speaking Europe. Werewolf trials reached Livonia in the 17th century, and would become the most common form of witch-trial in that country. The phenomenon persisted longest in Bavaria and Austria, with persecution of wolf-charmers persisting until well after 1650, the final cases being recorded in the early 18th century. Joining me today to discuss witchcraft and werewolf trials is Sarah Blake from Hushed Up History. As part of this topic we also examine the fascinating case of Thiess of Kaltenbrunn a werewolf trial that stands alone in history.... Thank you for listening.
